SIDEWAYS IN SPAIN

SIDEWAYS IN SPAIN
A Wine-Tasting Adventure Miles and Jack Would Approve


Step off the beaten Rioja trail and join us for
Sideways in Spain, inspired by the
Oscar-winning road-trip movie
SIDEWAYS following Miles and Jack through the central California wine region.
We’ll pair Spain’s most captivating varietals with iconic clips from
Sideways, including Miles’s infamous Merlot takedown—remember, his rant sent Californian Merlot sales plunging 40%!

Why You Can’t Miss This

  • Spanish Stars: A hand-picked lineup of Spain’s finest reds and whites, selected to challenge even Miles’s discerning palate.
  • Movie Moments: Relive Miles’s neurotic wit and Jack’s bachelor-party bravado as we screen fan-favorite scenes throughout the evening.
  • Good Times Guaranteed: Nostalgia, lively debates (“Merlot: guilty or misunderstood?”), and the chance to raise a glass with fellow Sideways fans.

 

Meet Martha, Your Guide

Our sommelier Martha brings years of tasting-room savvy and a passion for uncovering Spain’s best-kept vinous secrets. She’s curated
five Spanish wines that mirror the spirit of Miles and Jack’s California journey—and she’ll explain exactly why Miles himself would declare each one a new favorite.

Memorable Miles & Jack Moments

Miles: “If anyone orders Merlot, I’m leaving. I’m not drinking any f–––ing Merlot!”

Jack: “I’m not going to be some boor who gets wasted and makes a fool of himself.”

Miles: “The days of you worrying about what a wine tastes like are long gone.”

Jack: “This isn’t supposed to be fun?”


Join us for a night where California meets Castilla y León, where Miles’s biting wit collides with Spain’s warm hospitality—and where the only breakdown you’ll face is deciding which glass to refill first.

Sideways in Spain: Sometimes what you need most isn’t therapy—it’s another pour.
